Roberto Firmino heads Liverpool FC against Tottenham to the top of the Premier League. Spurs coach José Mourinho attacks Jürgen Klopp after a whistle.
He just can’t help it!
After a 1-2 defeat to Liverpool FC, Spurs manager José Mourinho was particularly keen on his opponent Jürgen Klopp. Shortly before, there had been a heated word fight between the two coaches after the whistle. The fourth official Mike Dean had to keep the coaches apart.
“I told him the better team lost. He didn’t agree, that’s his opinion, “Mourinho told Amazon and criticized Klopp’s performance during the match. “If I had behaved in the same way on the sidelines as he does, I would no longer be standing there.”
Klopp counters Mourinho
Klopp had repeatedly complained massively to the non-partisans during the game and thus made Mourinho angry.
In an interview with BBC, the Portuguese added that he had the feeling that Klopp and Liverpooler Bank had put pressure on the referees to provoke a second yellow card for Giovani Lo Celso, after which Mourinho had to replace him in the 58th minute.
Once in motion, the coach put another one on it. “My team was brilliant. But Liverpool didn’t look like a master today.”
Klopp’s counterattack followed at the same time. “When he said the better team lost, I thought he was joking. But he didn’t. Yes, they scored a goal and had two chances. Apart from that, we have controlled the game and it is highly deserved three points.”
